The User Interface - Elektron Analog Rytm Getting Started Manual

generate different kinds of bass drums, hihats, et cetera—and to provide the parameters most apt for each particular
MACHINE. For example, per default the BD voice makes use of one of the available bass drum MACHINES. Another
MACHINE may be selected which will engage the BD voice circuit in a different way, enabling it to employ frequency
modulation, ring modulation and more.
